Age, like fine red wine
makes us learn lessons to hold
in our memories.

Try, fail, start again
I wish I had known that then
I was too frightened.

Look in my blue eyes
they store the secrets of life
ask, I will tell you.

I wish it were true that “age…makes us learn lessons.” Unfortunately, I have known some foolish old people in my time. It takes age plus something else—introspection, perhaps—to make a person truly wise. Age alone won’t do it.

that is absolutely true, I couldn’t agree with you more. I guess I assumed that instrospection was PART of wisdom. It’s sad if that is NOT the case.
